- Hands-on Learning Through Play

Infants
Your youngest learners need to feel safe and supported so they can learn with their whole body and all of their senses. We at Little Boots Early Learning Center will support your infant by developing supportive, trusting relationships. We create rich environments that encourage your infant to explore and discover the world around them, helping them to engage in experiences designed to support their optimal development in all domains.

Toddlers
Toddler time is a very exciting time for you and your child. This milestone is usually indicated when the young child takes the initiative to formulate their own ideas, and develop a sense of autonomy. We at Little Boots will support your toddler during this wonderful time by first and foremost, encouraging an enhanced sense of self-confidence and self esteem. Little Boots Early Learning Center has three toddler rooms serving children ages 1 to 3 years. Learn More
Early Preschool & Preschool
Early Preschool/Preschool is a fun and exciting time in a child’s life. Your child will absolutely love coming to school daily at Little Boots. We offer two Preschool classrooms serving children ages 2.5 – 4 years old: Early Preschool (potty-training) & Preschool (potty-trained). Our dedicated & experienced teachers realize that each child develop at their own pace and therefore offer many activities in language, math, science, fine & gross motor skills. Learn More

a note from the Owner
Hi there! Thank you for stopping by and seeing what Little Boots is all about. I’m Mona and I can honestly say we are not like any of the other centers out there. First of all, 95% of the centers in Denver Metro North DO NOT have a Colorado Shines Level 5 Quality Rating (*ahem* we do!!).
But all that rating stuff aside, we really do love what we do, care about your children, and work so hard to make this center a rewarding experience for you and your family. We treat everyone that walks through our doors with respect, regardless of you and your child’s background, gender, race, disability, socio-economic status, etc.
I can sincerely say that the growth and success of this center, in the short amount of time since we have opened in August 2016, is my single greatest accomplishment (and I have done a lot… just read my bio). So again, welcome and feel free to drop me a note and say Hi!
Our Curriculum
The core belief in The Creative Curriculum is all children can learn and benefit from a developmentally appropriate program. Developmentally appropriate program means teaching in ways that match the way children develop and learn.
The Creative Curriculum will assist to create a learning environment that will support your child’s natural desire to explore and learn. Our educated team of teachers will provide many learning opportunities for every child through centers and shelf jobs that support and encourage a child to engage in academic learning activities.
